2010 Yuri's Night at NASA Ames
Poziom:
Temat: Nauka i technologia
(Music)
Lewis Braxton, III, Deputy Director, NASA Ames: This isn’t about being important for NASA, this is about being important for the country.
You know, we have a problem here with STEM education with all our youth.
We’re just one entity within this entire country that’s recognized that and is making an effort to try to get people inspired.
Young people inspired, so they can take advantage of what we have put forth up to this particular point in time.
The youth that you see running around here, that’s who’s going to bring closure to a lot of things that’s going on.
So, why is it good for NASA? Because it’s our future, it’s the country’s future.
It’s the way we live in this country and as long as we rely on technology to advance our civilization,
we need to do things like this for the youth.
Girl 1: We liked the lights, but also the face painting, that was pretty sick, too.
Boy 1: And they had the helicopters…
Boy 2: And you can make rockets and launch them…
Girl 2: Launching the rockets…
Girl 3: Well, I’ve seen a rocket. I’ve been in one of those jets. I made a whole bunch of stuff and it was pretty fun.
Teacher 1: Yeah, it’s a great time, we’re having a lot of fun. I can’t image how all this came together and it’s neat how many schools are represented.
S. Pete Worden, Director, NASA Ames: You know, we’re on our way into the solar system. We’re going to settle other planets and these young people are going to be the ones who are gonna do it.
And this is going to get them started and even more pumped and excited about studying science and math. I’m really pumped, this is really cool.
Girl 4: I like the rockets that we did outside, that was fun.
Boy 3: The calendar, that was the coolest thing. I like the calendar.
Girl 5: It’s kind of like going green and recycling and stuff. I like that idea.
Teacher 2: The kids are into this, so it spurs them to go into science and if they know that math is the basis for everything,
to take math classes, because they want to emulate this and to do this kind of thing. So, this is great.
Lewis Braxton: I understand there’s about 5,000 kids here, ranging anywhere from the 4th grade up until high school.
If you’re trying to hook, if you’re trying to get people excited and inspired about what’s going on, this is way you do it.
They’re getting to actually see it, touch it, smell it, breathe it. See what it’s all about to be involved in things that make a difference.
Girl 6: Listening to all the people come here and inform us about what they have to teach about space and NASA and what they create here was really inspiring, it was really informational.
Lewis Braxton: That’s the generation that we want to bring in here and actually do the do. We want to make sure they understand what it takes.
There are opportunities available…take advantage of it. Today…it’s inspire. Tomorrow’s the hook.
That’s what Yuri’s Night is all about here at Ames Research Center.
Kids: Go NASA!
(Music)
S. Pete Worden: Within a decade or two, the first humans will permanently live off the Earth. This is an exciting effort, we need all your help.
But now, it’s my very great pleasure to introduce my boss, who is doing even more to get us off this planet.
Lori Garver, the deputy administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. Yay!
Lori Garver, Deputy Administrator, NASA: Thank you, Pete. So, welcome to NASA.
We’re doing what we can with our wizardry in Washington to make sure that all these wonderful programs are brought to you: the people who care about us.
Partygoer 1: I’m really excited to be here, because in 1969 I recall very vividly, my mother and father waking me up to watch Armstrong land on the moon
and it really brings it home, full circle. It’s been a lot of fun.
Partygoer 2: You know, just seeing some of the technologies and science and then to have great music and great art…you know, it’s a win-win-win situation.
Partygoer 3: It’s a great event. You know, it’s science meets art and it’s very cool.
Partygoer 4: I think it’s all really crazy. Whoever puts all this together really, really knows that they’re doing.
They definitely express the entire idea of the event very well. I’m pretty much amazed everywhere I go around here.
Partygoer 5: What’s not to like?
Partygoer 6: Bring earplugs, it’s really loud…I love the Glitch Mob…
Partygoer 5: Bring earplugs…
Partygoer 6: (Laughs)
Partygoer 5: Yeah, the Glitch Mob was awesome, but very loud. If you’re at all into airplanes or space or the idea of space travel, it’s just thrilling just to be here.
Just to be here, just to see the hangars and the planes and to know the work that’s being done in those offices is exciting.
Partygoer 6: Yeah, pretty cool stuff.
Partygoer 5: Yeah.
Andrew Isola, Lumatech Lighting, YNBA 2010 Co-Producer: It’s about, you know, education, it’s about outreach, it’s about, you know, community.
So, that’s why this is important, because these people now have a connect with NASA. They will fight for NASA.
They will fight for funding, they will fight to make sure that it is not just pushed off to the side, because NASA really is the wave of the future.
So many projects, so much stuff that they work on actually goes into everyday life. You know what I mean? It’s so important.
(Music)
Partygoer 7: Bye guys! Thank you, so much!
